Full Closing Quote of President Trump's State of the Union Speech Feb 24, 2026:
"From 1776 to today, every generation of Americans has stepped forward to defend life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for the next.
1)
Our Founding Fathers started the greatest Revolution in human history. The Revolution that began in 1776 has not ended — it still continues, because the flame of Liberty and Independence still burns in the hearts of every American Patriot.
2)
G-d bless you, G-d bless your families, and G-d bless the United States of America."

„That @realDonaldTrump often lies is, in itself, not proof of irrationality. That he is encouraged to believe his own lies is more serious. Many of the US president’s foreign counterparts deal with the Trump challenge by trying to stoke his vanity.
2).
@SecGenNATO, Mark Rutte, depicts Trump as a »Daddy« who is doing the manly things necessary to keep the family safe. Assuming Rutte does not believe his flattery, the aim is to boost Trump’s ego so as to steer his actions.
@SecGenNATO 3).
The risk is that such honeyed words only push him deeper into fantasyland. When a leader has an outsized estimate of his own powers, truth-tellers are indispensable.

Roger Froikin @rlefraim wrote, "Sometimes one needs to take advantage of a great opportunity. It is time to end the cartel power in Mexico. There have already been designated terrorist organizations.
1)
After years of suspicion and sometimes hostility, it is time for the USA and Mexico to put that aside and act like allies—to destroy completely the power of the criminal cartels which have damaged and slowed progress in Mexico for years.
2)
And when the cartels are gone, what should be left is a great new Mexico–USA friendship and cooperation to make all of North America great again."

On TrumpRx.gov, thanks to discounts negotiated by the Trump Administration, the impact will be immediate for millions of Americans on common drugs that insurance companies often don't cover.

For example:

📉 The monthly prices of Ozempic and injectable Wegovy — two of the highest-spend drugs in the U.S. — falls from $1,028 and $1,349, respectively, to an average price of $350 and as low as $199, depending on dosage.

📉 The monthly price of the Wegovy pill falls from $1,349 to as low as $149, depending on dosage.

📉 The monthly price of Zepbound falls from $1,087 to an average price of $346 and as low as $299, depending on dosage.Image
Many of the millions of Americans struggling with infertility pay for their medications out-of-pocket, meaning they stand to save, on average, $2,000+ per cycle of fertility drugs thanks to TrumpRx.gov.

For example:

📉 The price of Gonal-F — one of the most commonly-used fertility drugs — falls to as low as $168 per pen, depending on dosage.

📉 The price of Cetrotide — another commonly used fertility drug — falls from $316 to $22.50.

📉 The price of Ovidrel falls from $251 to $84.Image
If you don't see your drug on TrumpRx.gov now, check back soon.

More high-cost brand drugs from new companies will be added on a rolling basis as the Trump Administration pursues the best possible deals for Americans.

And if you already get your drug through insurance, tell your Member of Congress to PASS President Trump's Great Healthcare Plan — so TrumpRx purchases can be covered by your plan.

Alright here goes:

My live fact check thread of the State of the Union, where I’ll fact check (and share any important announcements) until I crash out with rage…

God help me!

My soul feels like Kavanaugh’s face… Image

Trump enters, starts his speech to cheers of “USA, USA, USA” from MAGA.

With a noticeably sparse Dem side of Congress.

He claims America is “back” and richer than ever - which isn’t true.

The economy is notably on a decline. Image
3/

Trump calls this America’s golden age.

And claims he has solved most of the problems he has inherited… which is weird because he still is blaming the jobs report and market decline on the “Biden economy” Image

In October 2024, the Ohio Supreme Court issued a unanimous ruling in the case State v. Kyles (2024-Ohio-5038) that Ohio's felony animal cruelty law (R.C. 959.131, often called Goddard's Law) applies to all dogs and cats,
1) Image
including strays, community cats, feral cats, and unowned ones—not just household pets or those actively "kept" or owned by someone.

This means stray cats receive the same legal safeguards against serious physical harm or cruelty as owned household pets,
2)
elevating violations to a fifth-degree felony (rather than a misdemeanor under general animal cruelty laws). The Court interpreted the statute's definition of "companion animal" (which includes "any dog or cat regardless of where it is kept")
